Share this article with other mums

Looking for a cinnamon bread recipe that's easy to make and delicious to taste? Try this recipe to satisfy that craving.

This is the first time I have tried a cinnamon bread recipe though I have tasted the cinnamon buns before and they are heavenly. Especially the cinnamon is such a flavourful ingredient to make any recipe tastier. I have used the brown sugar here so the colour is slightly darker and my kids overloaded the bread with cinnamon spread.

Give it a try once and you will fall in love with it. You can simply warm it for a minute and can enjoy anytime with your tea or coffee.

Ingredients

Flour- 2 1/4 cups

Lukewarm Milk- 3/4 cup

Sugar- 1 tbsp

Melted Butter- 2 tbsp

Egg Yolk- 1

Yeast -15g( 1 packet)

Salt- 1/2 tsp

Filling

Softened Butter- 1.4 cup

Sugar- 4-5 tbsp

Cinnamon- 3 tsp

Method

1. In a bowl take yeast, sugar and stir well. Add lukewarm milk followed by egg yolk and melted butter.

2. Preheat the oven to 200 c.

3. Take a large bowl and whisk flour and salt. Add the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and start kneading (approx 15-20 minutes) or until it pulls away from the edges of the bowl. Gently shape into a ball shape.

4. Sprinkle little oil in a clean bowl and place the dough into it and cover with cling wrap.

5. Let the dough rest for around an hour at room temperature or at warm place until it doubled in size.

6. Take butter, cinnamon and sugar (I had brown sugar so used that here) and set aside.
